Honestly I'm more surprised that the border with Belgium is longer than the border with Spain

I'd say хз (the last one) is still used very commonly, but the rest are a bit outdated and I barely see them anymore.

Another thing I thought was outdated but some of my friends use is shortening common words. "I like" would be "мне нравится" and some people save themselves a second and write it like "мне нрав".

And another thing I just thought of is "etc" equivalent in Russian, "и т.д.", this one is used officially in documents etc, it's a shortening of "и так далее", literally "and so on". And some people simplify it further by writing "итд" without spaces and dots.

A regular French thing I guess

Now on Tap also used OCR. Both Google Lens and Now on Tap get the same bullshit results on any languages that are not Latin. Literally, Ж gets read as >|< by both exactly the same.

Was looking for this.

I don't mind that there's only one winning order too much. Could be cool to have more options but I'm okay with that design choice. Like you said, it's a lot of effort for not a lot of players. I could still vary the gameplay during the missions and that's good enough. Besides, I enjoyed the world and the characters more than in any other Arkane game, maybe on par with Prey, can't put one above the other.

Interactivity really helps relate to the character you're playing even if you're not making any actual choices. And like you said, the dialogues are done pretty well to be enjoyable and not annoying. I liked Firewatch a lot.

Deathloop's story basically means that you're replaying the game because you failed your previous attempt at escaping. You can play it more than once, the game encourages you to, and I kinda want to, but I never did because I already won. In a lot of games replays are basically just "fresh starts" and here, they are part of the story, and ironically, that's what's stopping me.

Garmin hybrid watch might be something you'd like.

No, just medieval ones. Modern or future fantasy is generally really cool, with or without magic.

Honestly, for some reason, I just strongly dislike everything set in the medieval fantasy setting. I tried watching Game of Thrones and dropped it because of that, I didn't watch too much of Harry Porter or LotR, never played Skyrim for the same reason. I know I'm missing out on a giant chunk of cool media that's great and interesting but I just can't bear this time period + magic. Unfortunately.

I might try something that's incredibly good and super popular but I probably won't like it in the end, even if I'm coming in with no prejudices against the world.

Well tbh I've heard a lot about the gameplay in Shadow of Mordor being great, so I played it when it was temporarily free on Steam. The gameplay didn't feel like anything special so combined with the world I disliked, I didn't last long in it.
